As one of the key links in the industrial control industry chain, electric control cabinet system integration plays an important role in the industrial automation and equipment manufacturing industries, and is responsible for providing reliable electrical complete sets of equipment to users in various industries. However, the previous step-by-step production method of electric control cabinets relied heavily on skilled workers, resulting in high costs, low efficiency, and unstable product quality.

The electrical control cabinet industry urgently needs to change the traditional manufacturing management model with increasingly high costs, and the industry is looking forward to the arrival of industrial transformation.

Recently, the “Digital Intelligent Manufacturing·Sparks Spreading Across the Country” SKYCORE Volcano Lake Super Factory was fully put into production and the launch ceremony of the one-stop electric control cabinet intelligent selection “e+” platform was grandly held in Jingxian County, Xuancheng, Anhui. With this, Volcano Lake, based on electrical collaborative design software, connects each link of principle design, process prototype design, smart supply chain, and shared large-scale flexible manufacturing with data, creatively creating a digital ecological full value chain for electric control cabinets. Chain, becoming the industry’s first fully digital industrial Internet platform enterprise for intelligent manufacturing of electric control cabinets.

Committed to leading the development of industrial Internet

Founded in 2020, Volcano Lake is an industrial Internet company that provides customers with professional digital electrical collaborative design software services based on cloud deployment and prefabricated package delivery in the “super factory” model for the industrial manufacturing and electrical automation industries.

“We are a relatively young company, but in fact, most of our founding team members are veterans in the industrial control industry, entrepreneurs with brilliant and successful experiences, and experts who have worked in multinational companies for decades. At the same time, We have also attracted many outstanding young talents from the IT industry. “Volcano Lake co-founder and CEO Tao Hai told the China Industrial Control Network reporter that Volcano Lake’s vision is to help the country’s manufacturing industry upgrade and become a leader in the global industrial Internet. .

Tao Hai believes that in the field of electrical automation control integration in China, there has been little progress in the past few decades, with low standards, poor efficiency, and low degree of standardization. The electric control cabinet and complete set market is facing an industry reshuffle. Therefore, Volcano Lake The founding partners of began exploring a standardized production and manufacturing process many years ago.

“We focus on how to make electrical control cabinets better, more efficient and at a lower cost!” Tao Hai said that Volcano Lake takes professional design as its source and aims to improve efficiency, reduce costs, improve quality and accelerate delivery. By building a collaborative, win-win, digital industrial Internet platform, we empower enterprise users, help them achieve digital and information transformation and upgrading, solve problems such as uncontrollable quality, low production efficiency, and high labor costs, and thus enhance the core competitiveness of enterprises in all aspects. .

In just a few years since its establishment, Volcano Lake has achieved rapid development and completed several rounds of financing. Volcano Lake SKYCORE-EB electrical collaborative design software and SKYCORE-DFM process prototype design software have been launched and iterated, and Yangzhou prefabricated wiring harnesses and Shanghai prefabricated assembly sharing Factories were established one after another, and a Suzhou R&D center was also set up. With the official production of the Anhui Super Factory, Volcano Lake Electric’s prefabricated package delivery service has reached a new level.

Explore new models for sustainable industrial development

Tao Hai pointed out that the traditional production of electric control cabinets mainly follows the order of design – procurement – integration – commissioning and delivery. This traditional and customary production method is doomed to high costs, difficult to control risks and low efficiency. How to reduce costs, control risks, improve quality and ensure delivery has become a pain point for companies. Thus, the one-stop electric control cabinet intelligent selection “e+” platform came into being.

Relying on the “e+” platform, Huoshan Lake can more conveniently provide industry customers with a package of solutions and product services ranging from electrical design, collaborative procurement and supply chain, to prefabricated package delivery, truly demonstrating the innovation created by the smart supply chain in the electric control cabinet industry. Infinite value.

Tao Hai said that the launch of the “e+” platform is an epoch-making move and an innovative achievement of Huoshan Lake in the field of digital ecology. “This is the first time in the electric control cabinet and complete set industry that price quotes can be provided through an Internet platform. It is accurate and can directly form the transaction price.”

“The water of Taohuatan is a thousand feet deep, yet cannot compare to the love that Wang Lun gave me.” Li Bai’s poem “Presented to Wang Lun” has made Taohuatan in Jing County, Anhui Province still well-known to the world thousands of years later. Today, Jingxian County is taking advantage of the momentum and blossoming with industrial beauty. Tao Hai revealed that the Volcano Lake Super Factory located in Jingxian County, Anhui Province is the largest standardized “transparent factory” for electric control cabinets and system integration intelligent manufacturing in China and even in Asia. The total investment of the project is 3 billion yuan. The first phase of the project covers an area of ​​200 mu, mainly for Focusing on the construction of digital design and intelligent manufacturing base, after production is put into operation, it can achieve an annual output value of 1.5 billion yuan for industrial electrical automation control systems and prefabricated package businesses.

It is expected that after completion, it will be able to provide more than 10 billion yuan of electrical control system complete sets for the majority of complete set enterprise partners and customers. Serve.

Tao Hai further introduced that the Volcano Lake Anhui Super Factory is equipped with advanced production equipment and manufacturing processes, which can increase the manufacturing efficiency and delivery speed of cabinets and complete sets by more than 5 times. In addition, by directly generating process manufacturing data through front-end digital design and simulation technology, the super factory can efficiently complete the prefabrication of customized openings and tapping of cabinets and mounting plates, and ultimately complete 60-80% of the work in the electrical complete set production process. When the system is delivered to customers, they only need to complete the installation, wiring, possible programming and debugging of key main components and standard components, transforming the step-by-step production method into a parallel workflow, effectively helping customers improve the efficiency of the entire process. Improve product quality, reduce manufacturing costs, truly solve the pain points of manufacturing companies, and provide new models and directions for the sustainable development of the entire industry.

Work together to build an industrial cooperation ecosystem

One travels faster alone; one travels farther in a group. Volcano Lake’s industry partners, including Phoenix Contact, Bokai Machinery, Zhejiang Zhongkong, Siemens, Honeywell, Chery Automobile, Austar Electric, Shanghai Xinhua, etc., attended the celebration. Tao Hai said that the market is changing rapidly and Volcano Lake is actively Build an industrial cooperation ecosystem and unite ecosystem partners to achieve win-win development.

“In the future, if companies want to develop, cooperation is the first priority. This is different from the previous single-handed struggle. We believe that whoever cooperates first will gain the upper hand in the future. Therefore, Volcano Lake is thinking ahead and is also ahead. In front.” Tao Hai said.

On the one hand, for different vertical industry application scenarios, Volcano Lake actively builds an industrial Internet ecosystem. As a leader in the global industrial Internet industry, it provides professional and standardized electrical complete set operation and management models to create a new virtuous cycle. Industrial ecology.

Google Gemini, Alphabet’s flagship generative AI, is being acquired by Honeywell to reduce maintenance costs, increase productivity and upskill employees by providing insights into massive data sets for industrial giants.

“Moving toward automation requires assets to work harder, people to work smarter and processes to operate more efficiently,” Honeywell CEO Vimal Kapur said in a statement announcing the partnership. Honeywell will begin providing AI insights to industrial customers in 2025.

Kapur recently told CNBC that the biggest problem AI can solve in the industrial sector is first and foremost a generational shortage of workers, with falling birth rates in industrialized countries leading to a smaller workforce for jobs that were popular 25 years ago. “Everyone in industry has this problem,” he said at a recent CNBC event on AI opportunities. Kapur told CNBC that with the help of an AI co-pilot, AI will enable an employee with five years of experience to work at the same level as an employee with 15 years of experience.

The AI ​​agents provided by Google will help engineers automate tasks and help technicians solve maintenance problems. Kapoor told CNBC at a recent event that Honeywell will soon embed connectivity in jet engines to enable predictive maintenance and reduce the time needed to work on the shop floor.

While AI is already being used in the industrial sector, the partnership will take it a step beyond current “AI point solutions,” Honeywell said, and will take AI “beyond simple chat and predictions” by connecting Google AI to the Honeywell Forge IoT platform.

Honeywell Forge, an IoT platform that contains information from Honeywell products’ industrial designs, manuals, and real-world performance, will leverage Google Cloud’s Vertex AI and Google’s large language models to build AI agents trained on that data.

“We are moving from automation to autonomy,” Suresh Venkatarayalu, Honeywell CTO and president of Honeywell Connected Enterprise, said in a Google blog post about the deal. “Our goal is to equip enterprises with AI agents that assist workers in real time — both on the factory floor and in the field.”

Workers can ask AI questions like “How did this department perform last night?” or “Why is my system making that sound?” according to the company.

Google AI will provide engineers with images, videos, text and sensor readings.

Carrie Tharp, vice president of strategic industries at Google Cloud, said in a blog post: “Industrial companies play a vital role in our daily lives, whether it’s the planes we fly, the medical devices we use, or the sensors that manage the air conditioning in our offices. As an entire generation of workers retires and, in many cases, there is no one to replace them, industrial companies are under tremendous pressure.”

Honeywell said the company is also exploring the use of Gemini Nano, a version of AI built into the device, to operate in locations such as data centers, hospitals, refineries and warehouses, especially in rural areas where internet connectivity may be problematic. Gemini Nano can provide AI directly on scanners, sensors and controllers to enable autonomous operations.

For AI giants like Google, getting industries across the economy to adopt AI is critical to turning capital-intensive technology into profitable opportunities. According to Honeywell, 82% of companies in the industrial sector that consider themselves AI leaders are lagging in adoption, and only 17% have fully launched initial AI programs.

Businesses in the economy also want their internal data to be as valuable as large language models like Gemini, which is the engine driving the next generation of AI. Hugging Face is one of the world’s most highly valued next-generation AI startups, with investments from Amazon, Nvidia and Google. “Data and datasets are the next frontier in AI,” said Clément Delangue, co-founder and CEO of the company, at the CNBC Evolve AI Opportunity event. He pointed out that more than 200,000 public datasets have been shared on the Hugging Face platform, which uses open source to develop AI models, and the data sets on the platform are growing faster than the growth of new large language models.

“The world will continue to evolve, and every company, every industry, and even every use case will have its own specific customized model,” said Delangue.

Siemens and Microsoft announced an AI agreement for the industrial sector late last year, which includes an AI co-pilot that can be used across industries.

Kapur believes that AI is a growth opportunity for the labor-starved industrial sector, which will bring new revenue opportunities rather than using it as a productivity tool first, and he is optimistic about the adoption curve quickly steepening. “Awareness is high, adoption is low, but there will be an inflection point,” he said at a recent CNBC AI event. “I do believe 2025-2026 will be a big year for AI adoption in the industrial sector.”

Francisco Gomes Neto, CEO of Brazilian aircraft maker Embraer, told CNBC that the company is studying markets and new technologies that might warrant it building an all-new jet.

The new plane could help the planemaker compete with larger rivals Airbus and Boeing, which deliver hundreds of planes a year, while Embraer delivers just a few dozen.

But Gomes Neto noted that no decisions have been made.

“At this point, we have no concrete plans to launch a large narrow-body aircraft,” he said, adding that studies of new engine technology, avionics and potential demand “are yet to be prepared.”

Meanwhile, Gomes Neto said Embraer is focusing on improving performance and sales of its regional jets, which won an order from American Airlines earlier this year to build its E2 jet, and “delivering on our commitments to our customers.”

Embraer said on Friday it delivered 16 commercial aircraft in the third quarter, up more than 5% from the same period last year. Including defense and business aircraft, the company delivered 57 aircraft in the quarter, up a third from the same period last year.

Earlier this month, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved the freighter version of the E190 passenger-to-freighter aircraft, paving the way for its commercial launch.

“That’s probably our advantage: we have a great product,” Gomez Neto said.

Both Airbus and Boeing have struggled to increase production and deliver aircraft on time after the outbreak. Boeing also faces the additional challenges of a safety crisis and a mechanics strike.

Boeing had planned to take over Embraer’s commercial aircraft business but ended negotiations in early 2020. Last month, Embraer said Boeing would pay it $150 million for the failure of the plan.

Like its competitors, Embraer is also facing supply chain pressures brought on by the pandemic, and the company is taking a deeper look at its delivery capabilities.

Gomez Neto said engines, hydraulic valves, cabin interiors and their components are some of the areas where suppliers are struggling to increase production. He added that he expected supply chain issues could ease by 2026.
